2 Great Cities, 1 Great University, Be a Tourist in Your Own Backyard! Vacation, Relaxation, Fun; one image that comes into our heads is sand, sun and water. Locals travel south to find their peace and quiet, while adventure, history, the arts and entertainment, and more, can be found in our own backyard. Lafayette-West Lafayette, Indiana, is home to 162 holes of championship golf and "stay & play" packages!
Let's celebrate! It is April 11! After this grueling winter we need to rejoice that spring is here. This also means our local golf courses are geared up for golfers to come and compete with their friends and family in the traditional sport of golf. My father, husband and father in-law are all avid golfers. They are competitive, yet enjoy just going out on the courses, hitting balls and having fun. They have shared that the courses in the area are enjoyable, yet challenging. My husband said golf helps him to unwind after a week of busy, stressful work and it gives him a chance to hang out with his buddies and relax.
Our two great cities offer "Stay and Play" golf packages. Three easy steps and you have booked a fun, golf getaway. First, golfers choose the courses where they want to golf. Ackerman Hills, Battle Ground Golf Club, Coyote Crossing, Harrison Hills and the Kampen Course are all participating golf courses that offer great rates for booking a "stay and play" package. The second step is picking the hotel that fits the individual or group's needs. Golfers can choose from the following hotels: Best Western, Courtyard by Marriott, Days Inn & Suites, Four Points by Sheraton, Hampton Inn, Holiday Inn City Centre, Homewood Suites, and Purdue Union Club Hotel. The last and final step is calling the hotel of choice and making the reservation. They will assist in booking tee times for all participants.
